What are the different travel speeds numbers-wise?

If standard running is 100% speed, what are the numbers for sprint, the different mount speeds, and the different flying speeds?

There's only one flight speed. It's faster than all land speeds.

Even ignoring which is faster, you can fly over mountains and buildings which makes flying better.

Sure, but OP raises an interesting question.
Is sprint 10% faster than your regular running? 15%?
How about peloton? That's a little slower, right? By how much though?
Etc.

Is there? I've always had the impression that I fly faster than my friends who don't have a second star in speed unlocked (up until ShB, there's just 1 star). Not much faster, but still, gettin to a place a good 2-3 seconds before them. Might be a difference in taking the right corners, tho.

Maybe it's FPS and it also looks like you get there faster than your friends because you see your movement without ping and your friend's location updates late.

Aren’t there some purchasable items that grant faster than normal flying speed?

Nope. The riding maps only affect ground speed.

I know darn well i fly faster than my friends, so im inclined to disagree with this. (I also know that when flying, it can "feel" slower, even when its faster than ground speed, which is why every MMO makes flying default faster than ground speed)

It's all in your head, flying speed is a set pace from as soon as you can take off.

As for all the speeds, someone has mathed it out for the yalms/sec.

Technically it would be in my friends heads, since they always ask me how im so fast, and when i turn around, they are always behind me by a drastic amount lol. But apparently they were wrong, and now so am i lol.
